I woke up too early, and slightly excited for my birthday even though my plans were just going to the mall alone. It's senior year and all of my friends and I drifted. I didn't have a boyfriend and my brother, Jack, was away touring with his band. I crawled out of bed and decided to get ready. I threw on my light blue sheer shirt on top of an orange lace cami and my floral print bodycon skirt over my black leggings. Then, I curled and hair while singing along to my iPhone on shuffle and did my make up. Shortly after, I arrived at the mall. I went completely shopping crazy. I was about to get lunch when my phone started ringing, it was my brother.

Hello?

Happy birthday baby sister! What are you doing?!

Thanks, nothing, just shopping around.

That's not too fun. I have a surprise for you. Come home soon.

Aren't you on tour?

Love you, bye.

That asshole. He hung up before I could even say anything. I wonder what he had up his sleeve. I hurried and finished the rest of the shopping I wanted to do, then headed home to see what was going on. I walked up the front porch steps and opened the door. My brother, his bandmates, and the rest of my family was sitting in the living room. "Kels!" My brother yelled as he ran to hug me. "You're a dick," I whispered, so my parents couldn't hear. I could feel him smiling on my shoulder. "I wouldn't miss your birthday for the world, you should know that," he said. I smiled, then noticed a band member missing. "Where's Zack?" I asked. "Uh...I think he had to go see his parents quick or something," Jack explained. "Oh, okay," I replied. I hugged the rest of his band members. There was a huge stack of presents sitting in the living room waiting for me. "Kelsey, kelsey, kelsey! Open them!" My brother said a little too excited. I sat on the couch and began to open them. They were all things Jack was collecting for me from the tour he's on, the things he managed to find were always the coolest. "Thank you, so much," I said hugging my brother. I heard someone walk through the door. Rian got up and looked to see who it was then gave Jack a look. "Okay, we're going to go in the kitchen, you stay here. We have to...do something," he said, kissing my forehead and leaving the room. I shot him a dirty look. As soon as the last person left the room I heard foot steps. I looked up. There was Zack, my brother's best friend, with a dozen red roses and a little box. I stood up to hug him, "Zacky!" He squeezed me tight, "these are for you." He said handing me the roses. I smelt them and set them on the table. "Thanks! They're beautiful." I noticed him swallow hard. "I also got you this," he said handing me the little box. I took a deep breath and opened it. Inside the lid of the box was engraved, "Be mine, forever?" and in the box was a silver infinity ring, on the band saying you and me. I smiled, "yes!" I said getting up hugging Zack. This was completely unexpected, but it was the best present I could ask for.

"Happy birthday, baby," he said, kissing me for the first time.

"Thanks, Zacky," I replied kissing him back.
